CURRENT MISSION

The world is a book, and those who do not travel only read one page

ABOUT ME

We are very close friends since we met at University and spent a lot of time studying together, living together in our student’s residence and having fun. Both of us were living in France for quite a long time, Tanja just left France as she had the opportunity to go to Canada.
In the meantime we just started our professional lives. Tanja is working for the international department at university.She makes it possible for students from Germany, France, Italy and Canada doing their studies in all these countries and getting an international degree. Maria is working for a german tv channel by doing Merchandising (books, soundtracks, toys, audiobooks).

But we never stopped missing the good old times, having time for travelling and always try to find some time and space for travelling and being outdoors whenever it's possible. That's why we are on Couchsurfing. We are open-minded and outgoing, but also considerate and respectful and quite flexible.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a present.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Building bridges, extending horizons between people on our travel adventures - and hopefully by hosting people as soon as we have the necessary room.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The first time Tanja heard of CouchSurfing was when she was in Canada. She participated in CS when she was travelling in CA and also in the States. Back in Germany, she told me about this amazing way to learn about cultures and share experiences.
